Innovation Workshop
When you need breakthrough solutions to specific challenges
What is an Innovation Workshop?
Intensive, facilitated sessions where your team tackles real business challenges using Creative Problem Solving methodology. These aren't traditional brainstorming meetings. They're structured experiences that move systematically from problem clarity to actionable solutions, with your team learning the methodology while solving problems that matter.
How does an Innovation Workshop work?
We design each workshop around your specific challenge, industry context, and team composition. Sessions blend divergent thinking (generating possibilities) with convergent thinking (making decisions), guided by facilitators who keep the process moving without imposing solutions.
Consider an Innovation Workshop if...
- You're facing a complex business challenge that needs fresh thinking
- Traditional problem-solving approaches aren't yielding breakthrough results
- Your team needs to align around solutions quickly
- You want to build problem-solving skills while addressing immediate needs
What you'll walk away with
- Clearly Defined Challenge Statements
- A Portfolio of Developed Solution Concepts
- Actionable Implementation Plans
- Enhanced Team Capability In Creative Problem Solving
- Energy And Momentum To Drive Change Forward
Additional services that add value
Add team assessments (VIEW, KAI, or FourSight) to help participants understand their thinking preferences and leverage cognitive diversity during the session.

Creative Climate Assessment
When you need to understand what's helping or hindering innovation
What is a Creative Climate Assessment?
A systematic diagnosis of your organization's creative climate using the Situational Outlook Questionnaire (SOQ). This research-validated tool measures nine dimensions that research shows either enable or inhibit innovation. You get data on how your teams experience the work environment, followed by strategic sessions to interpret findings and identify targeted interventions.
What are the 9 dimensions measured by the Creative Climate Assessment?
- Challenge & Involvement
- Freedom
- Trust & Openness
- Idea Time
- Playfulness & Humor
- Conflict
- Idea Support
- Debate
- Risk-Taking
How does a Creative Climate Assessment work?
Team members complete the SOQ survey (typically 15-20 minutes). We analyze results, identify patterns, and facilitate strategy sessions where leaders interpret the data and design interventions. Follow-up assessments measure progress over time.
Consider a Creative Climate Assessment if...
- Innovation initiatives aren't gaining traction and you're not sure why
- You sense cultural or environmental barriers but can't pinpoint them
- Leadership wants data-driven insights into organizational climate
- You're redesigning processes, structures, or culture and want a baseline
What you'll walk away with
- Quantitative climate data across nine research-backed dimensions
- Clear visibility into environmental strengths and barriers
- Comparison to benchmark data from other organizations
- Strategic recommendations for targeted climate improvements
- Action planning framework for implementation
